Servants wit!i all their imjierfeciions, (and God knows no human being is altogether perfect) are rare, ly so bad as represented ; and in many in. stances their defec iv© conduct may be imputed, in sum* measure, to the master himself, in so fir as he neglects to teach them th<*ir duty,or behaves to them with roughness or asper ?y. When you, George, become a master, treat your servants wi h kindness ; and i venture ?o say, that, almost in every ins*nncc, a suitable return will b; experienced. The be-t servant nriy fall * into error a: a time ; iut when one of this character happens to make an unintentional mistake, rather wink at the fault, than r< prchend it in the manner too customary with many p niple. Depend upon it, more j«J may be done in this way, than by adopting a con'rary conduct, mat is, if the servant is gifted w.th the slightest nortion of sense and discernment.

The appropriation of tea thousand dollars for a geological Survey of the Stat**, will be expended before the cad of the present . year. It wiit be necessary that nn nddilione! appropriation shall be made, if it is the purpose of the Legislature to continue the opera1 ions of the Geologist, until an entire survey of the State shall be completed. The buiidin? which is now being emc. ted fur fi Lunatic Asylum, will be comple led before your next session, and ready for the reception of tire insane. I would call the attention of tho Legislature to the n^cessity of prescribing the rules upon which i s inmates shall bo received, adopting prop, er regulations for the government of the Institu'ion, appoin ing a Doard of Trustees for its superintendence and inspection, and a Physician for its Medical direction. There are at present one hundred and sixty convicts in the Penitentiary. This number is too large to bo e.mployed within the present building, or to admit of the convicts being subjected to solitary confinement, the number of cells now erected being only ou« hundred and fifty. The Bounty *>n Silk. * u .r it « i woutu rcspecuuuy recommend the repeal or modification of the law passed at your last session, to promote the culture of silk. From enquiries made by 'his Department, it has been ascertained that the pr«mium of fifty cents off-red by that law for ©ucv, pound of silk cocoons raised in the S ate, .s iwrreo Kvim tf)e(r value ; so that the producers, receiving premium, will receive certainly twice the value for cocoons, and throe tirn^ if they can find a market for them. The extended plantings of the morus multicauhs mulberry tree, winch I«1 already been made in this Statu ; the facility wi.h which it can be rapidly propagated ; its quick growth and c4Ply fitness for fending t ie silk worm and tip; ease with witich any quantity of the silk worms may be obtained; render it highly proba. hie that a sufficient quantity of silk cocoons will be ra sed, en i led to premiums, to ox- can 1)3 hut little doubt that this will be the case, ii'our climate, soil, and chenp lands, admit of t!i« application of labour to die cultivation of the mulberry ;rec, and raising silk cocoons, so as to derive thercJrom the ordinary profits received fiom other < n»plo\ments. If not, then u!l the premiums which shall have been paid, will be so much public money thrown away. As the law gives an implied pledge that tlie premium shall bo paid for ten years, regard for the public f >iih. as well as the public interest r- quires that if it is to be repealed or mo li- fjcil within the ten years, it be done at once.! 1 and b fore verv extensive obligations shall j have been incurred to our citiz'ms under it, or large amounts of the public money paid away. Besides hese objections to the particular provisions of the l.iw, the policy in whirh it is founded is itseif very questionable. The people of ibis country arc so keenly a'tivc to their own interests; so li.tlc under the influence of long continued usages ; and change from on'- employment to another so readily ; that the intcifen nce of the Gov. eminent in giving a forced direction to their labour by bounties, can scarcely be justified in ntiy instance whatever. As the raising of silk cocoons requires neither etftraordi nrtrv camtal nor skill ; has been known to v .r ho pooplo of this- S ue from its first colonial settlement: is designed to supply the demands of luxury and not of nec ssi y ; and therefore only encouraged by thy Su e to enlarge the sources of profit; there is no stronger inducement for its encouragement by bounty, than any other production which ilie Legisla'ure may be of the opinion can be ra sed with advantage. Iftiie Legislature should bo of tiro cpinI ion, however, that the law is found- d in ] Sound policy, and ought to bo continued in force, I would recommend that it bo so m id.fi? d, as to takeoff the bounty now allowed upon s lk cocoons, and increase that allowed upon silk, and especially upon raw Professor, Fornrm, of the Washing on or reeled silk. Frauds are so easily com rnitted in weigh ng cocoons ihatjJiny noi be prevented. There;s brts:?!cs no ob. ject to be effected by encouraging the raiding of cocoons at present, as there is no sufficient market fur their sale in the Uui'cJ States, and because they canno* bo sen: abroad on account or iheir great bulk in proportion to their value ; the injury done to them by Compression ; and tlr ir liability to decay when exposed to the damp of the ocean. Raw silk, on the contrary, finds a ready market to any amount in England or France, and is so light in proport on to its value, as to-b?; set.t abroad at very little expense. If silk is to be undo in this State in sufficient quan'iiirs to become one of its staple productions, it will most J urohably be fa the form of raw silk, and I therefore, encouragement should be given :o i: in ihat form, if at oil. Maine and Georuia. ! regret to nform vou tint the Legislature of the Stat^ of Maine has declined ink. ing any measures to give satisfaction to t'»is State, for the violation of its constitu ion.il rights, by the refusal of Governor Dunlap and Governor K'-nt to deliver up to its authorities upon their demand tie* fugitives from its justice, Philbrook and K< llerao.. You will perceive from the proceeding? of the Legislature of Mai..e, at i's Inst session, that upon reference to it of all the documents in relation to Philbrook and Kellemn, it contented itself by resolving that the whole of that subject was exclusively within the province of the Executive Department, and that it was inexpedient for the Legislature to take any order in relation thereto, ! notwithstanding that the Ivgisla'tire had j passed a law at its previous session, defining tne power of the Executive D partmcnt in arresting and delivering up fugitives from justice, from oilier Snes, and evidently with die view of justifying Gov. Dunlnp in his previous refusal to deliver up PiiN brook and Kelleran to the authorities of th;s Stat'*, Tlds conduct of the Legislature of Maine and the previous conduct of Governor Dunlap and Governor Kent, prove conclusively that the opposition to llie in titution of slavery is so great .among the people of that State, thai their public nurh<.riiies nri prevented from obeying the injunc ioris of the Cci.stitu.iau of the United States, win n required to deliver up fugitives Horn justice charged with the crime of violating the rights of property in slaves. This Sfa must therefore protect by its own authority, the rights of its citizens in slaw property against this disposition of Maine, to violate them. For this purpose you will be justified in declaring by lawt that uii oiiiz<-ns of Maine who may come within the jurisdiction of tii s State, on board of any vessel ;»s owners, oflirirrv or mariners, shall he roil- side red as doing so wit!) the intent to romniit the crime of seducing negro slaves irom their owners, and bo dealt wi ll accordingly by the officers of justice. I have not called a convt n'iori of the people of the State to take into coasidt ration 'he course they ought to purs'-T in maint doing their rights in consequence of die refusal of Maine to do them justice, as directed by the resolutions of the L"g slature, passed .at its session of 1837, for the reason, ilia' he Legislntuio failed to provide for the ex- pensesofsuch a Convention,and hatiusea Convention for nno'lier object bid alicady been caiied by the Legis'ature, and its pro. cccdines submitted to the Dcenlo for ratifi- . 4 . | cation.

"In the third place, as a iirge share ofevery master's happiness, even of hisprofcssiona^chametor,depends upon thcin egriiyanil faithfulness of those below him, 1cannot sufficiently recomtn aid to your noticewhat may bo called the economy o>

ly so bad as represented ; and in many in.stances their defec iv© conduct may be imputed,in sum* measure, to the master himself,in so fir as he neglects to teach themth<*ir duty,or behaves to them with roughnessor asper ?y. When you, George, becomea master, treat your servants wi hkindness ; and i venture ?o say, that, almostin every ins*nncc, a suitable return will b;experienced. The be-t servant nriy fall

GEORGIA.We extract the following passages from

the message of Gov. Gdmer to the Legislatureof Georgia now in session.GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.

The appropriation of tea thousand dollarsfor a geological Survey of the Stat**,will beexpended before the cad of the present

. year. It wiit be necessary that nn nddilione!appropriation shall be made, if it isthe purpose of the Legislature to continuethe opera1 ions of the Geologist, until an

entire survey of the State shall be completed.The buiidin? which is now being emc.

ted fur fi Lunatic Asylum, will be compleled before your next session, and ready forthe reception of tire insane. I would callthe attention of tho Legislature to the n^cessityof prescribing the rules upon whichi s inmates shall bo received, adopting prop,er regulations for the government of theInstitu'ion, appoin ing a Doard of Trusteesfor its superintendence and inspection, anda Physician for its Medical direction.

There are at present one hundred andsixty convicts in the Penitentiary. Thisnumber is too large to bo e.mployed withinthe present building, or to admit of the convictsbeing subjected to solitary confinement,the number of cells now erected beingonly ou« hundred and fifty.

The Bounty *>n Silk.* u .r it «i woutu rcspecuuuy recommend the repealor modification of the law passed at

your last session, to promote the culture ofsilk. From enquiries made by 'his Department,it has been ascertained that the pr«miumof fifty cents off-red by that law for©ucv, pound of silk cocoons raised in theS ate, .s iwrreo Kvim tf)e(r value ; sothat the producers, receiving premium,will receive certainly twice the value forcocoons, and throe tirn^ if they can find a

market for them. The extended plantingsof the morus multicauhs mulberry tree,winch I«1 already been made in this Statu ;the facility wi.h which it can be rapidly propagated; its quick growth and c4Ply fitnessfor fending t ie silk worm and tip; easewith witich any quantity of the silk worms

may be obtained; render it highly proba.hie that a sufficient quantity of silk cocoonswill be ra sed, en i led to premiums, to ox-

can 1)3 hut little doubt that this will be thecase, ii'our climate, soil, and chenp lands,admit of t!i« application of labour to diecultivation of the mulberry ;rec, and raisingsilk cocoons, so as to derive thercJrom theordinary profits received fiom other < n»plo\ments.If not, then u!l the premiumswhich shall have been paid, will be so

much public money thrown away. As thelaw gives an implied pledge that tlie premiumshall bo paid for ten years, regard forthe public f >iih. as well as the public interestr- quires that if it is to be repealed or mo li-fjcil within the ten years, it be done at once.!

1 and b fore verv extensive obligations shallj have been incurred to our citiz'ms under it,or large amounts of the public money paidaway.

Besides hese objections to the particularprovisions of the l.iw, the policy in whirh itis founded is itseif very questionable. Thepeople of ibis country arc so keenly a'tivcto their own interests; so li.tlc under theinfluence of long continued usages ; andchange from on'- employment to another so

readily ; that the intcifen nce of the Gov.eminent in giving a forced direction to theirlabour by bounties, can scarcely be justifiedin ntiy instance whatever. As the raisingof silk cocoons requires neither etftraordinrtrv camtal nor skill ; has been known tov .r

ho pooplo of this- S ue from its first colonialsettlement: is designed to supply the demandsof luxury and not of nec ssi y ; andtherefore only encouraged by thy Su e to

enlarge the sources of profit; there is no

stronger inducement for its encouragementby bounty, than any other production whichilie Legisla'ure may be of the opinion can

be ra sed with advantage.Iftiie Legislature should bo of tiro cpinIion, however, that the law is found- d in

] Sound policy, and ought to bo continued inforce, I would recommend that it bo so

m id.fi? d, as to takeoff the bounty now allowedupon s lk cocoons, and increase thatallowed upon silk, and especially upon raw

Professor, Fornrm, of the Washing on

or reeled silk. Frauds are so easily com

rnitted in weigh ng cocoons ihatjJinynoi be prevented. There;s brts:?!cs no ob.ject to be effected by encouraging the raidingof cocoons at present, as there is no

sufficient market fur their sale in the Uui'cJStates, and because they canno* bo sen:

abroad on account or iheir great bulk in

proportion to their value ; the injury doneto them by Compression ; and tlr ir liabilityto decay when exposed to the dampof the ocean. Raw silk, on the contrary,finds a ready market to any amountin England or France, and is so light in proporton to its value, as to-b?; set.t abroad at

very little expense. If silk is to be undo inthis State in sufficient quan'iiirs to becomeone of its staple productions, it will most

J urohably be fa the form of raw silk, andI therefore, encouragement should be given:o i: in ihat form, if at oil.

Maine and Georuia.! regret to nform vou tint the Legislatureof the Stat^ of Maine has declined ink.

ing any measures to give satisfaction to t'»isState, for the violation of its constitu ion.ilrights, by the refusal of Governor Dunlapand Governor K'-nt to deliver up to its authoritiesupon their demand tie* fugitivesfrom its justice, Philbrook and K< llerao..You will perceive from the proceeding? ofthe Legislature of Mai..e, at i's Inst session,that upon reference to it of all the documentsin relation to Philbrook and Kellemn,it contented itself by resolving that thewhole of that subject was exclusively withinthe province of the Executive Department,and that it was inexpedient for the Legislatureto take any order in relation thereto,

! notwithstanding that the Ivgisla'tire had

j passed a law at its previous session, definingtne power of the Executive D partmcntin arresting and delivering up fugitives fromjustice, from oilier Snes, and evidentlywith die view of justifying Gov. Dunlnp inhis previous refusal to deliver up PiiNbrook and Kelleran to the authorities of th;sStat'*,

Tlds conduct of the Legislature of Maineand the previous conduct of Governor Dunlapand Governor Kent, prove conclusivelythat the opposition to llie in titution ofslaveryis so great .among the people of thatState, thai their public nurh<.riiies nri preventedfrom obeying the injunc ioris of theCci.stitu.iau of the United States, win n requiredto deliver up fugitives Horn justicecharged with the crime of violating therights of property in slaves. This Sfamust therefore protect by its own authority,the rights of its citizens in slaw propertyagainst this disposition of Maine, to violatethem. For this purpose you will be justifiedin declaring by lawt that uii oiiiz<-ns ofMaine who may come within the jurisdictionof tii s State, on board of any vessel ;»sowners, oflirirrv or mariners, shall he roil-

sidered as doing so wit!) the intent to romniitthe crime of seducing negro slavesirom their owners, and bo dealt wi ll accordinglyby the officers ofjustice.

I have not called a convt n'iori of thepeople of the State to take into coasidt ration'he course they ought to purs'-T in maint doingtheir rights in consequence of die refusalof Maine to do them justice, as directedby the resolutions of the L"g slature, passed.at its session of 1837, for the reason, ilia'he Legislntuio failed to provide for the ex-
